My Berlin dining companion is vehemently, vehemently opposed to photographing food in restaurants. Out of respect for her wishes, I will probably not get many opportunities to take pictures of what I'm eating. I did get these two clandestine shots of our Turkish lunch today. She was mortified (the second is blurry because I had to quick, STOPITNOW!). Ah well...

I have never eaten Turkish food before so it was quite a treat. We shared several appetizers which included a tomato and cucumber salad, a fantastic humus (liberally sprinkled with sesame seeds and a splash of chili oil), lamb meatballs in a tomato sauce and fried eggplant and peppers. I wish I had paid better attention to what the bread was called. It was delicious.
